You Get What you Deserve

You hear about scams bilking unsuspecting people out of money all the time. The elderly are especially vulnerable for some reason. But this story I am not so sure I feel all that sorry for this woman. Click to Read Story

You met someone online. Fine, people do it all the time. You developed a relationship. Okay. You decided to marry this guy. Wait a minute. Did I miss the part where you agreed to meet. Isn't that the next logical step? You thought you were going to marry him. Really? Did he propose? The best part is he fakes his death. Priceless.

Maybe I am being a bit harsh. but at the age of 31, unless you have been living under a rock, you should know better. You obviously know how to use the internet. You never saw anything on internet scams? Really?

Oh well, I guess love is blind...and broke.

WTF?

The state of Wisconsin has decided to change the name of its tourism federation after its acronym, WTF, became the butt of endless, ribald Internet humour. The federation decided to change its name after its logo found its way to a blog called Your Logo Makes Me Barf.
The organization, which was founded in 1979 – long before WTF became a universally accepted abbreviation of vulgar surprise – is now called the Tourism Federation of Wisconsin.

Call Me Kramer

Overnight, my master bath shower has gone from "low flow" to elephant washer. Ben finally got around to looking at the flexible hose shower head. It's only been 5 years. Apparently there was a little plastic doohickey that was there to provide a low flow and reduce water usage. Ben pulled it out and did I get blasted this morning. (Stop it you dirty mind people) I no longer will need to get dermabrasion treatments. This thing could exfoliate a crocodile. Plus, the temperature is easier to control now also. Hell, it's not like our water bill could get any higher. I say let the blasting continue.

At work I am in the process of getting a second monitor. This is to ease in my job duties as I am often going back and forth between our test and live databases. It's not a big deal. But some folks are thinking I am way too important now. Except for the IT guy who is going to be installing it. He needs to know why I need 2 monitors. I say, no he doesn't, he got the authorization to do so, just get it done. IT people need to get a grip.

Looks like 'Stallis is trying to clean up their image. Check Out The Story

Random Stuff

I think I will suggest that they install a big exhaust fan in our kitchen area. Someone just cooked somethin very nauseating. Blecchh!

I was quite sad to hear that Patrick Swayze lost his battle with pancreatic cancer. But he battled, good for him and God rest his soul.

Spending a week camping with family and friends always seems like a good idea when you plan it. The food was good, weather was perfect, mosquitoes were scarce. I guess that makes up for all of our annoying things we did to piss each other off.

It is time to make some changes in my life. Lifestyle changes. No, StB, I am not switching teams. At least not yet.

Work is going to get very intense for a while. Looks like I might actually be able to recoup some of the money I lost with the 6% paycut. Overtime, baby!

Next Sunday I am walking in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. Click Here To Donate

Remind me to use the "I am crazy" card to get out of the next pickle I am in. (regarding the douchebag that beat up our Mayor)

The Emmy's are on this Sunday. Not quite as exciting as The Oscars, maybe Kanye West will jump up and rip the Emmy put of Michael J. Fox's hands when he wins for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series. If you didn't catch him on Rescue Me, do yourself a favor and watch a rerun of it.

Why are there so many songs about rainbows, and what's on the other side?

It is Milwaukee Beer Week. Check it Out
